imread is a simple library which reads and saves images from disk to and from numpy arrays. Its goal is to perform this task simply, so that it can become very stable, leaving more complex image processing for other packages.

cso is an easy to use C module that serializes objects into a simple binary format. It can be used to store data or to send it over a network. It supports either an object of type struct (CSO_DICT) or array (CSO_ARRAY) which contains elements of type integer of different sizes, double, binary, string, struct, or array.

The libQtCassandra library is an advanced C++ library used to access Cassandra servers. Unlike the basic Cassadra server interface, this C++ library provides separate objects that handle each level of the server data, i.e. the cluster, contexts, table, rows, and cells. It uses Qt and the Qt style for all the classes, which makes it very easy to use if you already know Qt.

pyratemp is probably (one of) the smallest complete template-engines for Python (with about 500 LOC). It has a very small set of special syntax in the templates. This reduces complexity and the probability of bugs and lead to an easy-to-use and intuitive user-interface. It uses embedded Python-expressions (in a "sandbox"), is well documented, has full Unicode-support, and produces very good error-messages, which is very useful when creating new templates.

longops is a helper class which allows you to "split" your long-lasting operation to smaller "chunks" and perform the job in a "step by step" manner, so every "step" never exceeds a PHP execution limit time. Additionally, you can get the real progress bar of the whole work (not just an animated GIF) and a "red button" for stopping it at any time.
